Yes AE - he opted out - glad you spoke up

I spoke to him at length about it .....
It was damaging him and his psyche..... he accepted that

Honestly, he doesn't miss it

He made a prime target for some - and took the bait too well.
I think Mike is a great guy ,.just sometimes the forum brings out the bad side in people..

Yep bring back the Gorgon and treat him with the fairness yall give the foxbots
n
Say what, Gorgon was often given twice the length of rope to hang himself that the rest of us got. He didn't care about getting sin binned, as long as he got his digs in, or point across. Nothing wrong with that atitude but there are consequences for it.

Its why he burned through 2 countries in his life and is on way to doing so in the 3rd. Life has to teach you humility, our dear friend just calls on his race and education from 50 plus years ago to consider himself superior.

Im sure hes a good dude, I would probably get along with him in person, however civilized society holds people to higher standards and more recent accomplishments.

Insulting a man who can not defend himself is the definition of recreancy.

Is this thread going to turn into beating down a poster who is no longer around? I hope we are better than that.

Hey Ram, I hope you are well!

Just jumping in here, who is being picked on?
Are they deceased or just personae non gratae?

And a good handle on Dominican culture.

Whether Mr. Gorgon opted out or was asked to leave is the business of him and the moderators within. I only hope that with his love of music and the RD culture, he is paying note to the Dominican music thread that is now open for public view, even if not logged in as an active member of the community.

I just spoke to Gorgon and he is just fine. He thanks all those that would like him back.

He also wants to thank those that drove him over the point that got him banned. He is now mellow, cool and relaxed. His blood pressure is also great. He is fine with how things turned out.

Now that we got that out of the way it’s time to move on from discussing Gorgon.

Makes it alot more entertaining, nowadays i can skip a week or 2 and its the same boring convos, Anything gets just a little exciting people getting banned.

You can blame the Chinese, the Doomsday Davies, and the Crazy Charlottes for this. Not DR1.

I am happy he is fine. I miss his post and yes he did help me fine a good car, i was very stratified with his knowledge and patience and still am very happy with this car. It's sad that some people would put him down because of this niche market he made for himself.I met Mike only once but can say he is a very pleasant and respectable person.
